Spitefic: Liberation of Eutracia

[pan2000]

The Battle of the River of Death is not going well for the forces of Eutracia. Tristan and Shailha failed to lure the enemy forces to their deaths because they were caught before they could spring the trap.

So, now they are inside the enemy flagship.

Where they are both brought before Doctor Kudos and have to kneel at his feet.

"The sacrifices are ready, Doctor!" a Lizalfos reports. "We caught them after a mighty struggle!"

Kudos shows a demented grin before he speaks. "Oh yes. Finally, we have succeeded in our mission. I knew I could rely on you! My plan was genius!"

"What are you going to do with us?" Shailha asks.

Kudos crouches and grabs her chin so she can look him in the eyes. "Oh, we are going to sacrifice you two to an Archdemon, and with your endowed blood he will be able to come back to life.

The Scourge of Equestria, the Tyrant of Tambelon, Grogar will come back.

With him distracting the Equestrians, Starfleet and Stormwolf, we can take over as many galaxies as we can.

And I will be rewarded with the woman of my dreams."

He bends his head backwards and spreads his arms open. "WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You two are the key to my happiness, and to the Great One's triumph! Soon, I will call the Great Order of Apocalyptic Times to retrive you, and then you will serve your purpose in life!"

Shailha glares at him. "You fool... what makes you think we are trophies? And what also makes you think such a fiend will never turn on you?"

Kudos grits his teeth, then with no warning kicks her hard in the face, drawing blood. "What do you know, you stupid woman? Do you know how favorable this outcome is?

A vampire woman working for my master saw the future if I never came!"

He starts violently kicking her head while she is down. "If I didn't stop that horrible Sorceress, Succiu, she would rape both of you, and slaughter your family like pigs!

You owe me, you whore!" He starts punctuating his words with kicks. "You! Owe! Me!"

Tristan tries to break his restraints, but a vampire holds him.

"Stop it, you bastard! You are not entitled to kill us!"

This makes Kudos turn and backhand him hard in the face. As he falls down, the Doctor rubs his foot on his head.

"Shut your mouth, spoiled brat!

You know nothing about how much I have been through!

Actually, if not for needing those sacrifices, I would make you feel my pain so you can understand. Tell me. Do you have a girlfriend?"

"Yes, I do" Tristan answers. "In fact, I have slept with several women."

Kudos spits on his face. "Maybe if I killed your current one, you would understand. Oh, who am I kidding? You wouldn't. She would only die. That's nothing compared to her dumping you as if you are a hot potato. As if you don't matter!"

Two Moblins talk to each other.

"Why do we tolerate this asshole again?"

Kudos turns to them. "Did you say anything?"

"Yeah, why we tolerate Tristan, of course, Doctor!"

"That's what I thought!" the Doctor says. "Anyway, these two can be trouble, but also worth a lot.

Prepare to call Bray, I will perfect my new Vagaries. They won't be as powerful as the original, but they will be able to slaughter Stormwolf.

At least you two" he turns to the prisoners "can get a moment of happiness, for I am going to make the Sorceresses that would do terrible things to the kingdom get everything they have coming to them.

After all, I am in this position not for nepotism, but for my experiments."

The female vampire that captured Tristan pulls his cheek. "Can we play with them, Doctor? At least a little?"

Kudos nods. "Sure. But don't break them too much, I need them alive and in a relatively okay condition. An alliance depends on that."

And he leaves.

One of the two Moblins whispers to the other. "This is why we tolerate him."

---

The Nutty Poet blindly charges at the guards of the massive ship, but the remnants of the Minions, which submitted to the Legion, all attack her. She punches one of them in the jaw and kicks another one in the stomach, but they ultimately overwhelm her with their spears. However, instead of blood, only snow comes out.

And every monster takes a step back.

Too late, as rockets explode between them and decimate them.

"Retreat! Retreat!" a Minion yells in fear.

However, he and six more are caught in an explosion, which devastates them.

And from above, Karé attacks the Minions who fly to spot the Poet, taking them down with her blasters. While a few escape due to their smaller size compared to Karé's ship, Alix shoots them down as a falcon, firing feathers that kill them all.

From the mast of the ship, harpies appear, which attack Alix. However, she spins as fast as she can and becomes a drill, getting through two of the flying predators. Then she sends a tornado by flapping her wings, disorienting a few more harpies, and after she dodges a few red feathers she slashes the remaining harpies with her sharp talons.

However, a vampire flies very fast at her and punches her, sending her to the ground. She changes into her wolf form, ready for more, and breathes a sigh of relief when she sees the Wyvern coming.

Leah is wielding her Beast Hammer, smashing several Moblins with each swing.

However, they are still too many, and one of them grazes her with his spear. The spear deals no damage due to her new armor.

"Renee did say she upgraded the Hammer. She said I should try rushing with it...

Oh well, here goes nothing!"

As the Moblins all throw spears and shoot arrows at her, she rushes forward with her new move, the Guard Rush, blocking all projectiles and breaking through the enemy lines.

However, harpies come at her from the air, while Pukers come at her from the ground. She knows her fists won't help her here, so she uses her twin stake launchers and shoots each Puker in the head, killing them without letting them explode, and also shoots down the harpies.

In the end, several vampires charge at her, screaming. She blinds some of them with the Nut Launcher, then fires her twin stake launchers and gets five of them in their hearts. However, the others recover and reach her, forcing her to draw her stakehammer and, after shooting one of them in point blank range, impale three more with repeated stakings.

However, one vampire punches her in the face, making her flinch, and two more grab her and hurl her into a tree.

Then they and seven more charge at her all at once. She turns into her wolf form and lands a hard Ten-Sided Strike, killing them all. Then she sees a vampire trying to choke Alix, so she grabs his throat with her grappling hook and drags him to her before bashing his face in with a Sonic Overdrive.

But a Silver Arrow gets partially through the Epic armor and burns her.

And a Silver Moblin aims another one at her, smirking.

However, a tomahawk strikes the side of his head. Enraged, the archer turns to the direction it came from, only for Seth to throw a second tomahawk and hit him again in the head.

Disoriented, the Moblin loses his cool and fires an arrow at him, but he dodges and hits him a third time. However, the fourth time Seth gets too cocky and misses.

And immediately a Lizalfos comes from the left and slashes Seth with one of his twin swords, then knocks him down with his tail.

This allows the Silver Moblin to focus on the initial target and fire another arrow. Leah charges with Guard Rush and actually blocks it fully, though she gets knocked back one centimeter.

Then she wounds him with a poisoned stake and reaches him. Dodging a kick to the face, she punches him repeatedly in the face, thanking her gauntlets for her hands not burning at all.

As the poison takes effect, she lands one hard kick to the gut and he drops dead.

At the same time, Little Finn makes the last three Minions surround him and attack. Due to his small size, they hit each other.

"I thought they would learn from the Doctor doing the same trick to them!" a Lizalfos complains as he melts an ice wall the Poet has made with his breath. Then he attacks her with his swords, forcing her to raise her mighty naginata to defend herself.

The champions of Stormwolf can't take all foes out. And then the Equestrians come, stabbing Moblins with their spears. The Earth Ponies take down foes in melee range, the Pegasi take on the harpies, and the unicorns fire magical beams from afar.

Behind them, Resistance Troopers fire their blasters, stopping a few vampires in their tracks.

On air, Karé shoots a few vampires dead and injures the Wyvern with her blasters, but the massive winged reptile knocks her away with its tail, then drains eighty percent of her shield with its fiery breath.

However, the B-Wings fire their mighty blasters and wound the Wyvern in the sensitive stomach, making it temporarily retreat.

"We are still the glorious army who beat the Coven! We got our targets, we just need a bit more time! Don't fear the cannon fodder they just brought!" the Rally Captain announces.

Still, his words ring hollow...

Until an Earth Pony falls dead to the blades of a Lizalfos and a Pegasus gets punched through by a vampire.

This makes the Legion still determined to fight, and even more when the Octorocks emerge from the river and fire rocks, killing a Resistance Trooper and injuring Alix in her human form.

However, reinforcements come for Stormwolf.

Three hundred royal guards and seven hundred ordinary Eutracian soldiers charge in battle, surrounding the Moblins and Lizalfos.

"FOR THE PRINCE AND THE PRINCESS!"

"FOR EUTRACIA!"

"FOR FREEDOM!"

And the numbers of the Legion start dwindling fast.

Some of them drop their weapons and run away.

---

Kudos gets bad news about the battle outside.

"We already have lost six hundred soldiers, Doctor, and the Wyvern is injured! We need reinforcements!"

"And I just finished my experiments.

Very well, time to test them out!"

While in the prison of the ship, Shailha's face is full of sweat and blood.

"So, you just sent your monsters in the river? Don't you know about the Necrophagi? I saw your Octorocks, and they will be eaten alive by those things!"

The vampire that captured her strokes her hair. "Oh, don't worry. The Necrophagi are already fed. We sacrificed most of the Minions we captured, plus some civilians, to them. Plus, they might only tolerate humans and most other creatures, and only when the creatures feed them, but there are a few beings they actually respect."

Tristan snorts. "Like whom? The Doctor?"

The vampire that captured his sister strokes her chin, then he talks to the prince. "Try the few Reapers that are with us. Both species are somewhere between ghosts and something corporeal, and judge beings between life and death.

As for demons... depends. Our Soul Kissers don't command Necrophagi, but if we had an Archvile, he would be as effective as the Reapers."

---

The Eutracian soldiers cut down a few Moblins, and allow the Resistance Troopers to shoot a few Octrocks with their blasters.

A Lizalfos incinerates three Eutracian soldiers with his breath, but a royal guard perforates him with a spear from behind, allowing two archers to finish him off.

Alix is in her wolf form and mauls a vampire, while the last harpies are shot down by the B-Wings.

Seth uses his topaz axe to split the Lizalfos he was fighting in two, then stakes a vampire who had just drunk the blood of a unicorn.

An Eutracian soldier even reaches the Rally Captain, only for him to cut him in half with his sword.

And then they came.

First come the Reapers, who fly towards the B-Wings and Karé, teleporting out of the way of the blasters and disorienting them with waves of the Force.

Then come the ground forces. The Arachnotrons fire their plasma guns and massacre thirty Resistance Troopers who got too close to the ship.

Behind them, turns out a few of the Minions were experimented on by Kudos. Their eyes now are bright red and shoot lasers, while their hands are replaced by machine guns.

All their thoughts of rape and infighting are forcibly removed, and they are only left with the urge to fight.

They easily gun down and zap tens of foes.

"Fall back! The Minions got stronger than ever!" an Eutracian royal guard orders.

"Another mutated abomination? I wonder how it's called" the Poet wonders as she raises an ice wall, blocking the bullets coming from an enhanced Minion.

The Rally Captain gives another speech, making his troops stop retreating.

"The reinforcements are finally here! The Superminions are pushing them back. Help them and get glory!"

The Poet tries to hold herself from laughing. "Superminions? Did Kudos put any thought in this?"

This distracts her and a vampire is about to blindside her, only for Leah to dash faster and bite him to death in wolf form.

"I hope this half-assed job at naming extends to the whole project" Leah says and with a Guard Rush blocks a pair of laser beams from the first Superminion.

Then she reaches it. "ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA!"

The Superminion falls dead. "This looks like it's an afterthought... but why?"

And then two Vagaries come from the ship.

They fire their cannons at some Eutracians, brainwashing them into becoming their mindless slaves and attacking the others.

Then they fire beams from their cannons, blowing up several more foes.

They lack the whip of the original, and instead their right hand is completely free.

With that they send red, explosive butterflies and take a few more Eutracians down.

Leah orders everyone to stay back.

"They have two Vagaries! We can't win with brute force!"

However, doing so gives the Reapers room to send the vicious Necrophagi at Stormwolf.

However, those vile monsters can't stay too far from water. The one that succeeds at getting out gets killed by a Spectral Dash from Leah.

However, as she approaches the ship, they prepare to lunge at her, forcing her to retreat.

In the palace, King Nicholas is talking to his wife, Morgana.

"So, I think my son should be crowned right after we ensure the Coven and the Legion are defeated.

Honestly, I can't believe I have the freedom to wait until we are all safe, my queen. Wigg kept badgering me to do it while the Coven was still at large, so his prophecies would work."

"But Wigg is gone, right? Nobody forces you to make the coronation when everyone will be in danger!" Moragna tells him. "I agree with your choice, we shouldn't be so stuck in prophecies.

I think the safety of the kingdom goes first."

"Especially since the prophecy said that our daughter had to be kidnapped and join the Coven. The future is not set in stone, my wife. We are going to risk everything to defy it, we will make it good. I promise."

The queen grabs her husband's hand. "Me too."

---

Emily is talking to the refugees. "While I am assigned to ensure your safety, I don't think I can help you alone.

Anyone who wants to take a weapon and defend their families, they can join me!"

Three men join her side.

"We shall protect."

"Thank you for joining. As for the rest... I hope we can all keep you safe!"

Many are already gorging themselves on Emily's delicious spaghetti.

A few kids, who were starving since they lost their homes, are ecstatic they finally have food with them.

And Emily prepares a third pot of spaghetti for everyone.

---

Away from Eutracia, Stormwolf and the Equestrians split up in two groups.

One, led by Finn and Twilight, is going to Tiamo, and the leaders are in the Falcon.

The other, led by Poe and Applejack, is going to the Verdant Mountain of Herboss, and the Black Squadron is following Poe.

In the Falcon, Finn, Rey and Twilight are talking.

"So, your friendship wasn't always the best, from what you tell me" Twilight comments. "Well, trust me, manipulation and black magic, especially when combined, might make even one of us Mane Six turn our back on our friends.

Ok, except Rainbow. She might be more cocky than you, Rey, but she will NEVER turn her back on us."

"Are you sure she is still strong enough even against an imprint?" Rey asks. "Because that magic is beyond any mind control!"

"She has earned the right to be the Element of Loyalty with her actions. Even if not pure of heart, I trust her to stand a chance. Then again, if Fluttershy's willpower is not considered strong enough to resist that evil and my magic can't break it...

I don't know, I studied both the imprints and the Element of Loyalty.

It's the riddle of unstoppable force against immovable object. Anything could happen!"

"I agree. Let's just hope Rainbow never has to face that. Then again, who would she imprint on?" Finn asks.

"Well, if your... platonic life partner could imprint on a mass murderer who kept shifting blame for his crimes, I suppose anyone?" Twilight twiddles her fingers.

Finn and Rey nod. "Fair point."

As they keep talking, Finn and Rey start holding hands.

Ever since Finn accepted her back, both of them love touching each other's hands. This gesture reminds them that they are accepted. Loved.

And Twilight is glad to see them rekindling their bonds despite facing hard challenges.

"I am just glad your friendship prevailed" Twilight says.

"Me too" Finn replies. "Even if sometimes you can't make some guys reconcile with others because they are selfish, cowardly and egoistical, you are not useless.

We all fail sometimes. You know, nobody knows me as someone who has never fallen. Because I am not such a person. However, I keep getting back up. And as long as you do the same... you will inspire more ponies, and more followers of the Dark will dread you. Someone who never fell might be just lucky. Someone who keeps getting up must be determined."

"However, Starfleet preaches that out of pride, someone could choose to stay down" Twilight notes.

"Oh, that's a load of bullshit" Rey tells her. "Ok, someone chooses to stay down? Let them do so and pay the price. And no, choosing to stay down will not make me proud. I am proud of my accomplishments as a Jedi and independence, not for pushing my friends away. As someone who is full of pride, I know to discriminate between pride in something, and pride in nothing!"

---

One of the B-Wings fires its heavy blasters at a Vagary, as she gleefully watches Eutracian soldiers fighting each other.

She gets struck and blood comes out of her mouth after she screams in pain.

She retaliates with a laser beam from her cannon, but the B-Wing gets only a graze and hits her in the arm.

Karé takes down three vampires and a Reaper with her blasters, then she dives at the second Vagary.

The Vagary fires twin jets of milk from her breasts, aiming to blind the pilot, but she dodges with a barrel roll.

"What the fuck are you trying to do, lady?" Karé asks as she fires Proton Torpedoes and wounds her heavily.

The Vagary fires blue laser beams from her cannon, but Karé dodges them all and the second B-Wing shoots her in the face.

The other Vagary fires a mind control beam at Alix, who is in her wolf form and avoids it easily before biting one of her spider legs off.

But a Superminion strikes her with its red eye lasers, knocking her down. The Poet sees this and fires two rockets, killing the Superminion and injuring the Vagary.

A few Lizalfos come at her, but she casts a cyclone of snow and sends them inside the river.

Then she fires her snowballs and takes down a few brainwashed Eutracians non-lethally. She proceeds to start painting tranquilizer darts.

Leah uses her crowbar to bash several Moblins and Lizalfos. She sees a few Resistance Troopers surrounded by Moblins and dashes faster than the human eye can see, beating all Moblins to death.

The Rally Captain slashes a unicorn, cutting her in half. "They will never overcome our Vagaries, men! Push them back!"

Seth decides to make him shut up.

But as he rushes at him, a Superminion blocks his view. Seth dodges the Superminion's beams and punches the cyborg repeatedly, then stabs it with his stake. It kicks him hard in the face, drawing blood, but Seth wipes it from his nose and with a mighty swing of his axe cuts the Superminion in half.

Then he attacks the Rally Captain, but he dodges the first axe slash and retaliates with a forward thrust, which Seth barely dodges. Then he jumps and kicks the captain straight in the face, breaking his nose.

"My nose! How can I inspire my men without my beautiful looks?"

As the captain is complaining, Seth kicks him so hard in the stomach he sends him flying.

Alix turns into her human form and fires poisoned knives at one of the Vagaries, one of which hits the hole in the gut the Poet has opened. A few Moblins surround her, and she cuts them down with a Whirlwind of Wonder. Then she draws a few more knives, which she fills with coal tar.

And she throws them at the Vagary, filling her body with the substance. However, the arachnoid traps her in a spider web coming from her abdomen.

Leah smells the coal tar. "Anyone who has blasters or can cast flames, attack the Vagary on the right! She is full of coal tar!"

Then she rushes at full speed from the entrance of the ship, where she was to save the royal heirs, and saves the trapped Alix from a mind control beam.

The Vagary fires a spray of boiling blood from her cannon, but it only hits Leah's afterimage and a Superminion that's behind her. Leah has also taken Alix to safety.

A Superminion shoots at them both, but Leah takes all the bullets, her armor making sure she only took a little damage. And Alix shows off a new knife, one that has gasoline. She hits the Superminion with it, making it smell horribly.

And then Leah bats it at a few Lizalfos with her crowbar. One of them makes the mistake of defending himself with his fiery breath.

BOOM!

The explosion takes down the Superminion and the Lizalfos.

At the same time, Karé dodges a stream of fire from the Wyvern and fires her hot blasters at the Vagary, while ten unicorns cast small fiery beams, all hitting the abomination at once.

She is set ablaze and runs screaming to the water of the river.

Alix turns to the others. "This is why I chose coal tar. Even wet, she is done for!"

The other Vagary is ruthlessly attacking the Stormwolf forces. She traps ten men in her web, then spews poison and kills them all. She follows this by raising her right hand and sending pools of living blobs of blood, which attack the intruders.

The Nutty Poet knocks all the brainwashed turncoats unconscious, then with a snow cyclone she freezes the blobs and blows them away, allowing the Eutracian royal guards to easily finish them off.

A Reaper pushes four Resistance Troopers in the river, where the Necrophagi eat them, but Alix mauls the Reaper in her wolf form and then turns into a shark to fight the Necrophagi.

However, when she tries to bite the first of the Necrophagi, the bite passes through it, and the Necrophagos retaliates with a vicious bite than injures Alix, forcing her to swim away from the water.

Fuck! We need Kallie to stop those monstrosities! she thinks as she keeps swimming, and barely gets out of the deadly waters.

At the same time, the Vagary spews poison at the Poet, who blocks it with an ice wall. It also blocks her mind control ray easily.

But the Vagary fires boiling blood at the wall, partially melting it.

But before she can fire a second time, an arrow pierces her head.

And Geldon, the man the evil sorceress Succiu, the first Vagary, used as a sex slave and mount, has joined the fight.

He keeps firing arrows, crippling one of the Vagary's spider legs and inflicting several wounds on her.

Then he aims at a few Moblin Archers who are on the ship and takes them down.

The Wyvern hovers above the Poet and takes a deep breath, ready to turn her to ash.

However, Karé hits it from behind with her Proton Torpedoes, damaging its left wing, and performs a sommersault to dodge a heavy tail swipe.

Leah is about to charge in again, breaking the Blue Moblin defense with her Guard Rush and shooting some attacking crows with her stake launchers.

And as she gets in the massive galleon, she hears a nasal voice.

"Are you all retarded? Prepare the cannons! Shoot them all to death!"

"Permission to kill them?"

And a very exasperated sigh follows. "I am never going to live that down, am I?"

And the cannons activate, splattering ninety warriors on both sides, mostly on the Eutracian side.

Leah herself easily deals with the vampires, using just her stakehammer, until she faces a mighty Stalknight, who is wielding a massive sword and shield.

"Damn! I have no time for this!" Leah curses and draws her Beast Hammer.

Outside, Little Finn lures a Superminion to a stray cannonball, heavily wounding it, then finishes it off with a bite in the throat while it's down.

Geldon fires an arrow and wounds a Reaper, then he grazes the Vagary's ear. But she traps him in a shot of web and licks her lips.

But as she extends her hand to grab the delicious prey, a B-Wing shoots her in the face, making her flinch. Enraged, she fires milk from her breasts and strikes the pilot's cockpit, blidning the pilot, then heavily damages the ship with a laser beam from her cannon.

However, the pilot is not going to go down with a whimper. He will go out with a bang. He fires forward and keeps damaging the Vagary, then goes for a kamikaze attack straight to her face.

A cannon aims at the ship, but Alix turns into her falcon form and sends a gust of wind strong enough to send the cannonball back to the ship.

Then with a feather she frees Geldon, who fires an arrow at the Vagary's cannon arm right before it fires a laser beam to stop the ramming, which forces her to miss.

And the sacrificial pilot blows up in the Vagary's face, taking down both of them for good.

The explosion can be seen from miles away.

The last Superminion guns down two Resistance Troopers, and Soul Kissers come from the ship as reinforcements.

As the Poet raises ice walls on the river, making bridges and surprising the Necrophagi, the remaining B-Wing fires at two Reapers and turns them into black dust, while a Reaper decapitates a unicorn before the last five unicorns kill it with concentrated beams.

Then the B-Wing flies as a cannonball barrage comes, shooting all cannonballs down with its powerful blasters on time. But the Wyvern bites a wing off Karé's X-Wing, slowing her down, then incinerates the B-Wing with its mighty fiery breath.

Reminding herself of Snap, Karé gets pissed off and prepares to finish the dragon once and for all.

Geldon fires an arrow in the Wyvern's stomach, drawing blood and making it scream. Then he fires another arrow, saving an Earth Pony from a Soul Kisser.

Another Soul Kisser goes for the wounded Alix, but he fires an arrow and pierces the head of the lesser demoness, then brings down a few more of them.

But alas, the last Superminion fires its machine guns and hits him with seven bullets.

"I will avenge Mistress Succiu, traitor!"

"And I will avenge their victims... endin your terror once and for all!" Geldon, despite the bullets, still stands up, as none of them hit vital organs.

And he shoots the beast in the left eye just as it prepares its eye beams, making the eye explode. The Superminion retaliates with a single eye beam that pierces his left kidney, then fires its guns again.

Geldon ducks, making the bullets kill a Soul Kisser and injure a Lizalfos. The Lizalfos leaps close to the Superminion and sets it on fire before stabbing it with both swords.

It shoots him dead in point-blank range, but the damage is done. And Geldon has three more arrows. The first one just grazes the Minion's arm. The second one hits the other eye and kills the monster.

And as a Soul Kisser charges to kiss him and take his soul, Geldon looks at her defiantly, as if she was Succiu.

"Not this time."

And with an arrow in the heart the Kisser drops dead.

With Geldon following shortly after, he is bleeding too fast.

A unicorn rushes as fast as he can to heal him, only for a vampire to block his way.

So, Geldon says one last speech.

"The horror of the Coven is over. Not even their remnants are a threat anymore.

Let history remember that I, Geldon, played a vital role at destroying Succiu's legacy. All her rapes... all her cruelty... in the end, she was so pathetic she deserved to be laughed at!"

Inspired, the remaining Stormwolf, Eutracian and Equestrian forces push their foes back with the passion of beasts.

The battle is all but over.

And Geldon smiles. He saw the end of the tyranny of the Coven. He lived his life with no more regrets.
